Wingsuit Feat

[TomAiello 26]

So, in all the hoopla, we seem to have missed this.

On Sunday, a wingsuit jumper (name withheld until all the chaos dies down) exited an aircraft around 7000', flew down into a gorge, dropped below a set of power lines, then flew under a bridge and flew another 1000' or so along the gorge, before deploying and landing safely at the bottom.

It was an amazing flight. I'll try to edit (to remove all the controversial bits) and post the video in the next few days.

Nice flight!

Thanks. My girlfriend and I were talking about that last night... an incredible feat was overlooked in the midst of tragedy.

Tom,

yes, we all missed the significance of the feat by the (survuving) wingsuit flyer. Your reminding us was relevant and needed - so we can now focus on what WAS achieved on Sunday. Thanks,

I certainly look forward to seeing this amazing flight on the video when you've edited it to an acceptable standard.

I did not overlook it but its a fine line between being curious and insensitive. I am so very pleased you will provide this for us. Thanks Tom!

Tom,
Has the hoopla died down enough yet for you to post the flight of the surviving jumper? I would really like to see that flight. Thanks.

I think when Jesus said "love your enemy" he probably meant don't kill them.
